Golden Jackal Song |
| well I swung through town |
| shining like a new quarter |
| felt something sharp rise up within me |
| when I crossed the border |
| stopped at the gas station payphone |
| I let my fingers fly |
| the wicked impulses were dying |
| but I couldn’t let them die |
| we were over at your place |
| singin about the old times |
| I ate so much carrion |
| that I could not move |
| I was bloated |
| when I saw you in the kitchen |
| glistening like the old country |
| all your cups and glasses |
| lined up in front of me |
| I stopped at the faucet for a minute |
| waited til you came in to see what was wrong |
| your fingers brushed my ribs playfully |
| and I played along |
| you had your tongue in my mouth |
| your eyes glistening in the light |
| I ate rich raw carrion |
| till I couldn’t think right |
| I was full |
